Do you have volume control via myth with this method?

I can get all my audio output through the spdif connector, but can  
not find anyway of controlling the volume via myth (this would be my  
preferred option as I like the on screen volume display).

My amp is in a different room (as is the myth box for that matter).  
So I would not have any visual indication of mute or volume level if  
I don't do it via the on screen display.
